Abstract
Pt-like electrocatalytic activity of MoN, WN, and Fe2N for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) is demonstrated in this work. Among the transition metal nitrides, MoN has superior electrocatalytic activity and a higher photovoltaic performance. This work presents a new approach for developing low-cost and highly-efficient counter electrodes for DSSCs.This publication has 23 references indexed in Scilit:
